Head Lice Symptoms

9. Red Bumps
In instances of head lice infestations, the bites caused by the lice will sometimes result in small red bumps. A lot of the time, these bumps will remain hidden under the hair meaning they don’t get noticed. The lice will also sometimes feed on other areas on the body, though, particularly the neck and shoulders.
Other types of lice can also cause these small red bumps, meaning they might also be found on the body, including in the pubic region. Humans can also be bitten by fleas and some other insects and parasites. As such, it is a good idea to get these red bumps checked out if they occur regularly.
